Frederick Billings and Horace Fairbanks
Of Vermont. J W Miller. manager of the
Stonington line. President \. c. Cheney of
the Garfield National bank in New York
General f. F. Beale of Washington, and
many other capitalists in the Eastern states
have formed company for building the
Nicaragua ship canal A party Of 40 engi-
neers and 1870 laborers, in charge of Com
mander II. c. Taylor of the navy, will sail
for Graytown Nov. -, and will thoroughly
resurvey the route.
The length of the proposed canal will be
10 miles, from Graytown, on the Carib-
bean sea, to the Pacific Lake Nicaragua,
the river San Juan and the valley of the
river San Francisco will afford navigation
most Of the way, a small amount of dredg
ing Of mud and some damming Of water
being necessary. The remaining forty
miles will have 10 be eXcavated through
earth and rock Liberal estimates, based
upon former surveys, place the cost az
500, 0OO. 900.
Graytown is about 300 miles north of
Aspinwall, which is far enough to prevent
any trespass upon the concessions to the
Panama canal. 1t will make the route from
New York to San Francisco fully 700 miles
shorter than via Panama, and 1000 miles
shorter than around Cape Horn The re-
gion is less volcanic than the isthmus of
Darien, and the climate more endurable.
If the engineers find the route as practi-
cable as they expect TO- it is believed that
the company viii have the canal done and
in operation long before De Lesseps can fin
ish the Panama canal even if he can raise
the necessary funds. Under the concession
from Nicaragua, the canal must be neutral
and the United States will see that it is kept
so. As an investment it will probably
prove profitable, and as a boon to commerce
it will be equal if not superior to the Suez
canal

EUROPEAN BIMIGRATIoN.-The three
quarters of the current year ending Oct.
lst brought us a European immigration
numbering All 900. For the same period
last year the arrivals were 294, 800. The
total immigration for 1856 was 334 203.
The total for this year will be over 800, 900.
Since 1880 we have received about 1 0OO,-
900 foreigners The immigration from
Great Britain and ireland this year is more
than one-third of the whole, while Ger
many ranks second, furnishing one fifth of
the entire number. Immigrants from Mex
leo and Canada are not included in the fig
ures given above. What proportion of the
half million were desirable accessions to
our population, and what proportion are Ii
able TO become a burden and drag ON the
progress of this country, Of course cannot
be stated but there can be no doubt that
the quality of the army of immigrants
would have been improved by judicious
sitting. Free Press
